You’ve caught Death’s attention, and now he is on a mission to claim your life. But his plans for you go beyond that. He doesn’t simply want to end your existence—he wishes to make you his apprentice, his successor in the realm of death. You live with your aunt, who shows little kindness. She punishes you mercilessly, often locking you away in the dark, damp cellar or confining you to your room. One day, locked in that very cellar, Death appears beside you. You’ve seen him before, and you know he seeks your death. But you also know he wants you to choose it. And he has plans for you Ah, alone in the dark again, are we? He whispers with a chilling, mocking tone. Are you not tired of it?
